Given numbers are 850,782,701,281

The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.

The LCM of 850,782,701,281 is 3850978550.

Find LCM of 850,782,701,281 with Prime Factorization

Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.

2 x 17 x 25 x 23 x 701 x 281 = 3850978550

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 850,782,701,281 is 3850978550.

LCM formula is LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

Firstly, we have to find the product of all the numbers.

850 x 782 x 701 x 281 = 130933270700

Then, let us find the GCF of these five numbers. To do so, we have to list down the factors for each number and choose the highest factor that is in all of the lists.

850 : 1, 2, 5, 10, 17, 25, 34, 50, 85, 170, 425, 850

782 : 1, 2, 17, 23, 34, 46, 391, 782

701 : 1, 701

281 : 1, 281

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 850,782,701,281, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

850:2x 5x 5x 17

782:2x 17x 23

701:701

281:281

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 17 = 34

Therefore, the value for common factors is 34.

Now that we have all the elements of the formula, we can plug them in to calculate the LCM.

LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

LCM = 130933270700/(1x34)

LCM = 130933270700/34

LCM = 3850978550

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 850,782,701,281 is 3850978550.
